The economy is limping along, people are suffering, our roads are falling apart and what is the House GOP doing? Defunding a group that doesn’t exist anymore. Here’s a few more completely useless things they can try to do in their rush to do as little as possible,

For this weekend’s reading list, we have an interview with the author of a new book on how to tackle the deficit without destroying government, a critique of the GOP’s ‘faith-based’ economic theories, a study on conservative media bias that helped destroy ACORN, an accounting of how states have been unable to reform health insurance, an analysis of how computerized voter registration systems would increase voting rolls while saving money, and a critique of Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel’s undemocratic governance.

I’ll admit, some liberals have been nasty toward the death of Andrew Breitbart. 43 is far too young to die and his family does deserve condolences. But the fact remains that Breitbart was not a nice man. His life’s mission was to destroy people, using whatever means, honest or not, possible. He did not, however, deserve to die.
